i had to run spacers on mine with 225's on the rear. the rubbed my coil overs a bit. but i think there 6 mm spacers and its a really tight fit without a rolled fender. 8mm barley fit under mine with no camber so. like 2 degrees of camber and 8mm might work.

So do BC Coilovers have more clearance than ksport? I have no rubbing issues.
